Trpc2tm1Mom mutation (1 available); any Trpc2 mutation (98 available)
♀ phenotype observed in females
♂ phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
abnormal behavior ( J:279957 )
• due to the lack of vomeronasal perception of f-MKKFRW, homozygotes fail to display the normal avoidance behaviour to this core peptide of an enteric bacterial virulence regulator

nervous system
abnormal vomeronasal sensory neuron physiology ( J:279957 )
• fail to respond to the f-MKKFRW peptide, which is the core peptide motif from the enteric bacterial master virulence regulator MgrB

N normal phenotype
homeostasis/metabolism
abnormal physiological response to hypoxia ( J:235858 , J:307157 )
• type B olfactory sensory neurons fail to respond to reduced oxygen although they respond normally to 8-bromo-cGMP and KCl (J:235858)
• type B olfactory sensory neurons respond to NaHS but fail to respond to reduced oxygen (J:307157)

taste/olfaction

behavior/neurological
abnormal sensory capabilities/reflexes/nociception ( J:235858 )
• n a conditioned place aversion test to an area of low oxygen these homozygotes fail to display a preference away from the low oxygen area consistent with the failure of type B olfactory sensory neurons to respond to low oxygen

nervous system
nervous system phenotype ( J:235858 )
N
• homozygotes have a normal hyperventilation response to a 10% oxygen environment
